Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Golden Sky Stories (Japanese: Yuuyake Koyakenote literal English translation: "Sunset") is a heartwarming, non-violent Tabletop RPG from Ryo Kamiya and Tsugihagi Honpo. It is translated by Ewen Cluney. If this does not ring a bell, Ryo Kamiya is the one who brought us much weirdness in the form of Maid RPG and Nechronica.While Golden Sky Stories has its own share of strangeness, compared to the above works, it is much more tame in comparison. (In fact, it is recommended for ages 10 and up.)The players take on the roles of henge (pronounced: hen-gay), magical animals who live in a small Japanese town, helping the local residents solve their everyday problems. There is no over-arching quest to save the world and usually no fighting or anything that could be traditionally called a villain.That does not mean that the stories get boring. On the contrary, the honesty of the small everyday occurrences will touch your heart and reinvigorate your spirit.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })It is pretty much Iyashikei in RPG form.It has four English supplements: The Colors of the Sky, featuring additional character types, scenarios, stories, and more, combining translated Japanese GSS material not collected elsewhere with original English material; Faerie Skies, an alternate setting where you play fae in a small English town; Fantasy Friends, an alternate setting where you play Lighter and Softer versions of Dungeons & Dragons monsters in a fantasy town; and Twilight Tales, a translation of the Japanese Mononoke Koyake, which introduces playable mononokenote wholly magical beings. It also has two untranslated Japanese supplements, which further expand the available player options, with elder henge, and humans respectively.The English website can be found here. | |

Golden Sky Stories (Tabletop Game) / int_122db6df | comment |
Cute Witch: Rules for playing one of these, or variations upon the concept, are introduced in The Colors of the Sky. It directly mentions that in a lot of ways they're actually more like the mononoke introduced in a later supplement, but the rules treat them as a special type of henge so you can use them with just the corebook. | |

Relationship Values | |
Golden Sky Stories (Tabletop Game) / int_19a781f | comment |
Relationship Values: The game has these going for all the PCs' relationships with each other, the town, and its inhabitants. Building up these relationships is important since it gives you more Wonder and Dreams, which can be used for henge magic and social encounters. | |

Power at a Price: At character creation, henge choose from 1-3 weaknesses from a list for their type, each of which comes with a corresponding power. | |

Golden Sky Stories (Tabletop Game) / int_34bd7be2 | comment |
Super Drowning Skills: Cat henge has an optional weakness called 'Can't Swim.' If they enter any large body of water, they are automatically affected by a level 7 surprise. They can overcome this weakness if they spend 6 points of Wonders/feelings for each time they do. | |

Actual Pacifist: Almost all henge, as encouraged by the system: any violence will result in a reduction of relation with the town they are in regardless of reason. Everyone in the default setting are these as well. | |

Genius Loci | |
Golden Sky Stories (Tabletop Game) / int_586624e5 | comment |
Genius Loci: Local gods are animal spirits with some similarities to powerful henge, but they're tied to a specific location and thus not recommended as player characters. Fox henge can have shrines devoted to them, which allow them to speak to local gods as a peer, but they're not fixed to the location. | |

Cats Are Lazy | |
Golden Sky Stories (Tabletop Game) / int_58e3bec6 | comment |
Cats Are Lazy: This is a gameplay mechanic: Cat henge can take the weakness Lazy, which severely limits their ability to succeed at strenuous tasks, but in return, they get the Sleeping Soundly special ability, which gives them bonus Dreams points if they spend an entire scene just lazying around without actually doing anything. | |

Random Number God | |
Golden Sky Stories (Tabletop Game) / int_869ffa6b | comment |
Random Number God: A rare tabletop RPG aversion, the core game rules contain no randomness whatsoever. Character creation is essentially Point Buy, Wonder and Feelings points are earned at a fixed schedule between scenes (dependent on your Relationship Values), while Dreams are awarded by other players for role-playing. All ability costs are fixed, and attribute checks succeed and fail based solely on whether you spend the required amount of Feelings points to beat the difficulty rating set by the GM. | |

Younger Than They Look: Most of the example player characters in the corebook are only a couple years old, though they look like preteens in human form. The exceptions are Kuromu the cat, who's 15 and looks her age in human form but would be old for a cat, and Suzune the fox, who's Really 700 Years Old. | |
